Asheville police officer Carrie Lee and her partner, officer Joe Jones, arrived at the annual neighborhood block party earlier this week to respond to a report that the slip-and-slide was blocking the road. “We looked at it and determined it wasn’t really an issue,” Lee said in a [video](https://twitter.com/AshevillePolice/status/882220471386861569 "undefined") interview that the police department posted on Twitter. “So the first thing I said, I said I’m not here to break up your fun.” > [](https://twitter.com/WLOS%5F13/status/881871916549754881) Lee can be seen in a [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BUFJqUdUss "undefined") going down the water ride while sitting inside of a black garbage bag, much to the delight of both adult and children party-goers. Jones took a turn while sitting inside of an inner tube. “My butt is wet,” he says in the video. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4844972/cops-slip-and-slide-asheville/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4844972/cops-slip-and-slide-asheville/"},"headline":"The Cops Got Called to Break Up a Slip 'N Slide Party.
